Uncharted 4 surpasses Halo 5 in global total sales per VGChartz global numbers which counts only physical sales and does not include digital sales numbers.   About 2 years ago, the idea that Uncharted 4 would outsell Halo 5 was unfathomable.  More amazingly, Uncharted 4 has been out for less time whereas Halo 5 has already had 1 Christmas season since the game's release. 

My guess is that Uncharted 4 will be close to 7 million physical copies after Christmas where as Halo 5 may be around 5 million after this Christmas.

If only VGC could be believed.

Damn when Uncharted 1 came out who could've imagined the series would eventually outsell a mainline Halo game. Damn

Holy mother of God. So uncharted series was the "halo killer" after all.

Out for a lot less time and 1 holiday less. Uncharted 4 will push on and outsell it by a large margin. Large enough that if we include digital we'll know it's outsold it for sure.

Like seriously, wow...

Pretty crazy how recently I was just reading a thread about predictions on whether Halo 5 or Uncharted 4 will win in sales that was made 2 years ago, and a good amount thought that Halo 5 would come out on top, but never thought it would actually happen.

Unfathomable? No, never was.
The "console war" was already decided two years ago which guaranteed a huge install base advantage for Uncharted 4. Naughty Dog's last game was The Last of Us and Uncharted 3 being also a success. The bad reception of Halo 4.

yeah right...

I remember my argument with jaywood about it. Lol. I was right.

Didn't MS say a while back that Halo 5 sold 5 mil within a few months of launch? Pretty sure there was a fairly big thread about it here

I take my VGC numbers with a grain of salt. But I definitely can see sell through numbers being bigger for Uncharted, yes.
